I am intending to purchase a TS 45. It is a 2007. I have been reading the forums and now I am concerned whether I will have to put additional X bracing on the unit. Do 2007's need X bracing?

Just to be clear...
Is it suggested to have the bracing done on the K3 chassis as well?

Approx $1800-2500.

Best money I've spent....improved ride & steering SO much, and I hadn't thought either of them was a problem before bracing!

Hi Gene,
We pick it up at 10 AM tomorrow. Really excited. I am glad we got yours. You took good care of it. Do you remember what the door combination is.
